DENVER (AP) -- Carlos Gonzalez homered twice, tying the game each time, and Charlie Blackmon scored on a wild pitch in the ninth inning to lift the Colorado Rockies past the Cincinnati Reds 6-5 on Friday night.
Joey Votto homered in the top of the ninth off closer John Axford (3-3) to tie the game at 5.
In the bottom of the inning, Blackmon laid down a one-out bunt single.

He initially was called out trying to steal second. But a replay review showed second baseman Brandon Phillips didn't quite get the tag down before Blackmon slid into the bag.
Blackmon moved to third on D.J. LeMahieu's groundout, and with Troy Tulowitzki at the plate, reliever Ryan Mattheus (1-2) bounced a wild pitch that catcher Tucker Barnhart couldn't corral. Blackmon bolted home.
